  tracker-search:

Bugs:

  * GB#616548 - DIrectory lists and de-duplication in tracker-preferences
  * NB#166767 - Every word in a long tag is indexed separately

Translations:

  * Updated cs: Petr Kovar
  * Updated de: Mario BlÃttermann

Notes:

  Due to the HTML extractor changing the document type from
  nfo:Document to nfo:HtmlDocument, we would advise anyone with these
  files indexed to use:

    tracker-control --reindex-mime-type text/html

  This should make sure all indexed files are correctly adjusted.
